Instructions
- Add enough water to the beef to cover, bring very slowly to a simmer and cook until done, (as with making any stock, this can take a few hours).
- Put in the food processor: onions, sambal, chilies, garlic and shrimp paste.
- Process until you have a paste.
- Fry this paste in the oil on a medium heat for a few minutes together with the kaffir and bay leaves.
- Add the soja sauce, a little vinegar, the cooked meat and 1 to 2 cups of the meat stock.
- Simmer for approx 15 minutes, and then taste for salt, sugar and maybe more vinegar.
- Serve this with rice and other Indonesian dishes, what is really great as a little side dish is to quarter a few bananas and quickly fry them in butter until brown and starting to soften, keep warm in the oven until you are ready to serve.
- The little chilies make this dish pretty hot and I sometimes leave them out.
